Permselectivity of the glomerular wall examined with iron compound tracer [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
Rat kidney endothelial cell morphology was examined after introducing iron colloid particles of positive or negative charge to investigate the relationship between the electric charge and permeation through the glomerular capillary.

The Evolving Importance of Insulin Signaling in Podocyte Health and Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2018
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease worldwide, occuring in approximately one-third of diabetic patients.

Recent Advances in Traditional Chinese Medicine for Treatment of Podocyte Injury

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Podocyte is also called glomerular epithelial cell, which has been considered as the final gatekeeper of glomerular filtration barrier (GFB). As a major contributor to proteinuria, podocyte injury underlies a variety of glomerular diseases and becomes ...

Hydroxychloroquine Associated With Lower Glomerular Filtration Rate Decline in Lupus Nephritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) protects kidney function in lupus nephritis (LN) by preventing flares, yet some cohort studies show no significant benefit in kidney function with HCQ. Clarifying these conflicting findings by showing early and long‐term benefits of HCQ on kidney function preservation is critical.

Microphysiological Systems for Comorbidity Studies: Chronic Kidney Disease and Osteoarthritis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review highlights the potential of organ‐on‐a‐chip systems for studying comorbidities, using chronic kidney disease (CKD) and osteoarthritis (OA) as examples. It summarizes recent advances in kidney‐on‐a‐chip and joint‐on‐a‐chip models and discusses their current and potential application in investigating CKD, OA, and CKD‐OA comorbidity, aiming to

The podocyte power-plant disaster and its contribution to glomerulopathy

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2014
Proper podocyte function within the glomerulus demands a high and continuous energy supply that is mainly derived from the respiratory chain of the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Molecular Mechanisms of Kidney Injury and Repair in Arterial Hypertension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The global burden of chronic kidney disease is rising. The etiologies, heterogeneous, and arterial hypertension, are key factors contributing to the development and progression of chronic kidney disease. Arterial hypertension is induced and maintained by

Induction of Nephron–Ductal Dual Lineages via Early Retinoic Acid Signaling Establishes a Platform for Fully Patterned Kidney Organoids

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A simplified, co‐culture‐free protocol for kidney organoids that generate segmented nephrons, including collecting ducts, has been developed. Early low‐dose RA with FGF9 induces balanced anterior–posterior IM patterning and dual UE/MM lineage commitment. BMP7 enhances nephron progenitor maturation.

Podocyte RIPK3 Deletion Improves Diabetic Kidney Disease by Attenuating NF‐κB p65 Driven Inflammation

open access: yesAdvanced Science
Receptor‐interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) is a key player in necroptosis and an emerging inflammation regulator, whose contribution to podocyte injury in diabetic kidney disease (DKD) remain unclear.
